Many, including myself, have seen great results from 250mg/wk of sustanon for 8-10 weeks. I'm an advocate of smaller doses and strict diet manipulation. You really don't need much to grow on your first cycle anyway. If you stick with smaller doses, you can double your dose on the next cycle, and still not be doing heavy doses. A lot of guys who start at 500+ for their first cycle, end up doing a gram after a couple more cycles. Not necessary IMO.
